Tada!! Presenting..
my spaghetti aglio olio with shrimp!
Following my one-dish-a-week program, this week we go italia bebeh! Recipe from cooks.com, altered to my agak2ness.
some of the ingredients. not in pic: pasta, dried chillies
Cara membuatnya agak senang ye puan2.
1. Cook 350g of spaghetti according to the instruction on its package 
. Once done, drain & set aside.
2. Heat the pan with abt 1/3 cup of extra virgin olive oil on low heat. Quickly fry abt 8 dried chillies until it becomes crisp, but it shouldn’t be too long to avoid the oil become discolored. Get the chillies out and drain the oil with kitchen cloth. Then mash them until they become chilli flakes.
3. Back to the pan & olive oil. Toss in 6-8 cloves of garlic, finely chopped. Saute for abt 1 minute. Next, toss in 10-12 fresh prawns, anchovies fillets (should be abt 1/2 bottle of delicius’s anchovies – see pic above) and the chilli flakes. Spare some to cater for different tastebuds, kalau nak pedas tambah sendiri later..
4. When the shrimps are almost cooked, toss the pasta into the pan, sprinkle some (or many, to your liking!) parsley flakes and season with salt & pepper.
5. Serves 3 bellies.
The verdict?
Hubby likes it, but maybe if I put in some lemon juice (as substitute for wine) it will taste more like The Lawn’s (aglio olio die best gile! but very oily). And he suggested that maybe next time we should use fresh chopped parsley instead of McCormick’s, because the flavour of parsley is tenggelam with dried one.
Now, what’s for next weekend?
this is nice. pasta, my all time peberet. tapi malas nak buat sendiri.
yeah kak di. tapi olio ni senang gile, ala2 buat bihun goreng je. oh but bihun goreng, to me, sounds cerewet! heh
